Figure 8

Diagram of Bad’s involvement in committed PCD and brain development from 0.5 to 72 hpf. Early (5.4–12 hpf) PCD is essential for smooth early cell migration and for the formation of the 3 germ layers in later development, which is connected to late (after 12 hpf) PCD for tissue and organ development. Bad-mediated cell death is required for reducing environmental stress, which is correlated with triggering p53-mediated stress signaling on the p53/caspase-8/tBid death pathway and suppression of brain development genes such as irx4a, pax7a, and fabp7a, which are correlated with action behavior. Furthermore, Bad-mediated brain defects should be rescued in the tumor-suppressor p53 mutant (p53M214K) line. This model system may be a better system for human brain diseases such as autism, psychoses, cognitive disorders, and XLID in that they are correlated with Bad defects.
